Racist Idiots in North Davidson County Discover Spray Paint

Posted by Betsy Phillips on Mon, Nov 23, 2009 at 11:33 AM

Perhaps the only thing more annoying than seeing an asshole with a giant SS tattoo at the grocery story, when all I want is some cereal and maybe some chocolate milk, is wondering

  • A faint swastika can still be seen on this barn.
whether he's also the guy making my neck of the woods ugly--or if we have a bigger problem. On Eaton's Creek Road, just past the northeast border of Beaman Park, someone has spray-painted a swastika on a barn (and though you can't see it, since it's been mostly removed, a crude penis).

And then, just past where the new Beaman Park trailhead will go, there's more racist graffiti at the corner of Old Hickory Boulevard and Bull Run Road. This says "Fuck Obama," which, of course, in and of itself isn't racist--but the spraypainted "KKK" over it puts the presidential sentiments in context. And again, more penises. I have to say, just on a side note, that the penises make me a little sad--that there are guys out here in Davidson County who think that a picture of a penis belongs with a swastika or the KKK; that it, too, is something that people should fear; that it represents hatred and power (in this case, of course, white power). How weird and terrible must it be to experience your perfectly ordinary body part as the seat of all your rage. I also wonder if it makes me a bad feminist that I find cartoonish representations of penises--which are clearly supposed to invoke male hegemony--more hilarious and sad than scary? When I see stuff like this, I wonder why any woman, no matter how racist, would ever get involved with white supremacist movements. These guys couldn't make it any clearer that they think just as little of women.

Maybe it is or maybe it's a hoax too to drum up support for Obama. It's unfortunate but the MO of the party bosses has been to say any disagreement with Obama, even if he's just another Bush, is racist. If I supported Obama this would be a good stunt to get sympathy. From everything Ive read and heard about the real KKK, they are trying in sanitize their operations and create a friendly respectable image. AS Robert Byrd said in his book that when he was in the KKK it was a respectable organization. If it's just some trailor park chimp that can't write his own name, then there is not much to be concerned with

Friendly respectable image? You HAVE to be joking. Seriously. So if a new wave of nazis came out saying they wanted to give the "movement" a better image, that would be cool with you? Lame excuse.

Here in Memphis we had a bunch of Skinheads come up from Houston about fifteen years ago. It only took about six months worth of regular ambushes and beatings before they figured out that they weren't wanted here. They're pretty hard-headed folk.

Funny I must have missed that issue of the Democratic news letter that said we should all go out and find remote areas to spray paint racist graffiti in order to drum up support for Obama. Brilliant strategy.
I think I also missed the memo about how public displays of graphic symbols of racism are a good thing. For anyone.

Aunt B, don't waste your precious time and effort feeling sad for fools. Doesn't make a damn to them, and contributes nothing to bringing about change. I do have a thought about a potentially effective gesture though.
How about acquiring a cheap aerosol bomb of white paint, carrying it with you for use when encountering the Neanderthal grafitti: then spraying ---- "HAVE GUN, WILL TRAVEL."
Nothing derails stupidity quite as effectively as ridicule. And, it's possible to tranform things to where we get a genuine chuckle out of it ourselves. Now that's a positive.

Of course it's a hoax to drum up support for Obama. Duh. It's like when those black churches were being burned a couple years back. Was done by blacks to get sympathy and make everyone think the whole world is racist and out to get them.
And when a homo gets the crap beaten out of him, nine times out of time it was a set-up to try to drum up support for the homo agenda.
It's all so obvious.

No It's not an excuse at all. You cant read or think. I said that the KKK is trying to clean up it's image. THey have been dormant and are trying to make a come back. There was doc on the History or Discovery channel on this not very long ago. THey want to use the old, "We are just trying help white people" stance instead of the church and cross burnings that scares everyone. This is what David Duke did back in the 80's. Spray painting signs like a a bunch of teen gangsters wouldnt exactly be copasetic with a cleaned up image. Anybody ever worked for a pr agency? Same klan just differant image
and yes it could be a hoax. Remember the Amthrax mailings??? wast exactly one those big bad Muslem terrorist now was it??

Yeah, but the anthrax mailings weren't a hoax. People actually got sent anthrax in the mail and they actually died.
People might have guessed wrong about who sent it, but someone had evil intentions and succeeded. That's not a hoax.

A hoax is a deliberate attempt to deceive or trick an audience into believing or accepting that something is real, when the hoaxer (the person or group creating the hoax) knows it is false
Well the Amthrax was obviously done to get support for the Patriot Act and The big bad War on Terror. It wasnt cave men like we were supposed to believe. Yeah people died and one rather mysteriously.
I dont think that this is anything of that magnitude or the one that's now breaking out on global warming. but it could be some locals wantng to drum up support for Obama. If gets attention, then it will have worked. AND Im just saying its very possible.
It could be some redneck teens but most kids think Obama is really cool, so the peer pressure would be working against them

This anonymous fellow might use very bad grammar but don't let that blind you to the fact that he is absolutely correct. My buddy Ted intercepted a memo from the Tennessee State University Young Democrats and, lo and behold, on their agenda was a plan to make us anti-Obamabots look bad by painting racist graffiti on buildings.
And the Bush administration not only knew and had a hand in the planning of 9/11 but they also mailed out the Anthrax with the hopes of blaming it on Saddam.
It's all so obvious but all you Obamabots and Bushophiles who get your news from the MSM (CNN, NYT, Fox) are getting lied to. I get all my news from conspiracy blogs, that's why I know things the rest of you don't!!!!!

Of course it's true!!!!! There is an evil international cabal of scientists that is part of the Illuminati. They have conspired with the likes of Al Gore and Leo DiCaprio to use the fear of global warming to enslave the rest of us in a one-world Communist government.

I know it too it is BS when they say all over the news that the dollar is crashing. ANd that guy that was on CNBC and then Fox last week saying we were headed for global government and a global currency. AND what is the deal with Dick Morris? He's just lost it. AND of all things, these loonies keep saying the Federal Reserve is private, and needs to be audited, talk about tin foil hatters..Ron Paul and Dennis Kucinich what a couple of nuts? huh, I feel so much better when I hear Hannity and Limbaugh making fun of Black Hellicopters. ha ha ha ha ha

This is also absolutely true! You remember when Pat Robertson said that a hurricane would destroy Disney? He was basically sending out a coded message to the people he had planted at The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration to send them a hurricane!!!!! For whatever reason, they ignored him. But they did send one to New Orleans because of their decadence. Bush knew about it ahead of time. That is what was so bewildering about his response to it.
Good stuff guys (and gals)!!!!! Now we are actually getting some fresh thinking on the Scene's blog.
